The first thing to realize is that whether you want or not, you are alone. Aloneness is your very nature.
You can try to forget it, you can try not to be alone by making friends, having lovers, mixing in the crowd... But whatever you do remains on the surface. Deep inside, your aloneness is unreachable, untouchable.
In the crowd you know exactly who you are: you know your name, you know your degrees, you know your profession.
But the moment you move out of the crowd, what is your identity, who are you?
In aloneness you disappear as an ego and personality and you find yourself as life itself.
Unless you are capable of being alone your search for truth will remain a failure.
Your aloneness is your truth.
For this matter, in fact, very few people have loved at all;
You can love authentically only when you are.
Right now you are only a part of a crowd. How can you love? -- because you are not.
First be; first know yourself.
In your aloneness you will discover what it is to be. And out of that awareness of your being love flows, and much more.
By knowing yourself you have conquered freedom.
